"ايستگاه خدا

قطاري كه به مقصد خدا مي رفت ، لختي در ايستگاه دنيا توقف كرد و پيامبر رو به جهانيان كرد و گفت:
مقصد ما خداست . كيست كه با ما سفر كند؟
كيست كه رنج و عشق توامان بخواهد ؟
كيست كه باور كند دنيا ايستگاهي است تنها براي گذشتن ؟


قرن ها گذشت اما از بيشمار آدميان جز اندكي بر آن قطار سوار نشدنداز جهان تا خدا هزار ايستگاه بود.

در هر ايستگاه كه قطار مي ايستاد ، كسي كم مي شد قطار مي گذشت و سبك مي شد ، زيرا سبكي قانون راه خداست .

قطاري كه به مقصد خدا مي رفت، به ايستگاه بهشت رسيد . پيامبر گفت اينجا بهشت است . مسافران بهشتي پياده شوند،اما اينجا ايستگاه آخر نيست .

مسافراني كه پياده شدند ، بهشتي شدند .اما اندكي ،باز هم ماندند ،قطار دوباره راه افتاد و بهشت جا ماند.

آنگاه خدا رو به مسافرانش كرد و گفت :
درود بر شما ،راز من همين بود .آن كه مرا ميخواهد ، در ايستگاه بهشت پياده نخواهد شد .

و آن هنگام كه قطار به ايستگاه آخر رسيدديگر نه قطاري بود و نه مسافري .
